without rereading the thread my opinion of Rarity is:

I don't know I haven't read anything they've posted.

But you're throwing Shade at AC over voting them?

I don't like that whatsoever.

You know what that says to me?

That you don't even try to discern AC's motives behind voting them.

Really looking more and more like scum amni here.

I just looked over his posts to see if I could catch him reacting to Rarity indirectly, by reacting to something like my bigass post replying to her, but came up short..

Cause dude is like laser focused on just the AC thing, goddamn. Would vote.

Not because they voted rarity, but because they voted for the vote leader based on "new" posts, in an attempt to differentiate themselves from others which is a thing scum do to make it seem like they're not bandwagoning.

In any case, I stand by initial suspicion of Rarity and am starting to feel gross about amni and grandi

Yeah except you're apparently not even acknowledging anything in the post, other than that the target's conveniently a vote leader mate.

Because if so... good.

I think Amni is trying to force this suspicion on AC.

Even if rarity x hal looks eyepop bad to me, Amni's insistence on AC seems overdone.

Yeah. I don't like Grandi's push on you, compounded further by the fact he was pushing you in agreeance with me, while shading me for the fact he can't agree with my way of thinking!

My current thoughts on the matter is that Amni is overextending in an attempt to protect a scumbro, which is exactly what he did in the last game I modded.

I think I'd still rather prefer a Rarity lunch because that hal push stinks something fierce and technically there is a chance that Amni's just tunneling, my gut says otherwise though.

Scum are, in general, very concerned with trying to convince their *accusers* that they are wrong about finding scum. Town are more concerned with finding scum. Complaining that I'm not interacting with your defense further cements your alignment as scum.

Add it to the "Rarity is scummy" list.

Also more reason that Amni doesn't find anything wrong with Rarity is downright bizarre.

Second is AC


This is such shade for no goddamn reason. I didn't read posts before I entered the game, I am actively reading all posts past my entry into the thread. Seeing that many unread posts while not being in the game for less than 24 hours is disheartening. But this isn't a defense of my choice, it's the back handed reference to an event that has long since past and been rectified. It's the restoking of suspicion on me for reasons. This post is oozing with scum-mind. The calling out Keane is weird too. This response is to:


The vitriol doesn't seem warrented.
Alice: "Hey, what do you think about this situation?"
Bob: "gently caress off, why weren't you listening when I thought about things before?"

The Rarity take has legs, I think Rarity's Hal vote is based on bad reasoning, but I don't feel like it is coming from a bad place. Has legs might be a bad turn of phrase, but I don't this AC is scummy for thinking it is the better phrasing, maybe?

what vitriol? Where did I say anything about Keane?

apostateCourier posted:

Rarity's recent posting has a real "uh oh pressure is on better make content happen" vibe. 6 posts without a read on D1 isn't as damning as you want it to be and dropping six quotes in one post makes it look like you're doing way more work than you are.

##vote Rarity

Those six posts in a row were literally all in a row, pretty naturally flowing as one conversational moment, so saying "wow six posts without a read" seems pretty forced
